Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans

I got some chocolate covered espresso beans today, and ate them tonight while reading Face to No-Face, a book with transcripts of Douglas Harding workshops and interviews. I noticed how this small self got pretty wired after they had all been consumed, the tendency of contracting down to this (as this small self doesn’t particularly like it), and how this all was just an object within myself as this vast space & awareness – wide open for the whole world.

The contraction down to this little object is a faithful reminder of myself as this space and capacity for the whole wide world as it arises in the present.
